Arion was one of Monstercat's first artists. He started in Monstercat 001 - Launch Week but left in Monstercat 005 - Evolution.
History[]
His first release under the Monstercat label was "Cold Blood & Ice Cream Cones", an electro song, and was the label's fourth release. His last song was a dubstep track called "Internet Rebellion".
Eventually, Arion got sick of social media, and blacked out all of his social media pages, taking time off to find himself as an artist and take other routes.
On July 11 2016, Arion posted a picture to facebook called 'Time'. The Picture read 'For evolution one must accept change. This announced the return of Arion. On November 11, 2016, Arion returned to producing music with his new alias Aaron Fontwell. His first (and so far, only) release under this new alias was the self-released "Crystal Coated".
Sadly, Crystal Coated is the only song released by Aaron Fontwell 2 years later. Fontwell has said on his twitter is piled up to the roof but near the end of 2018, he deleted all his tweets except for one. The tweet reads 'I sleep with both eyes closed and one eye open'. On October 11, 2019, however, Aaron Fontwell released a new song, "Black & Blue", which is currently available on all streaming platforms.
